The video tutorial explains the implementation of a bidirectional streaming API server. It begins with an overview of the API's flexibility in responding to messages. The tutorial then guides through the server implementation, focusing on creating a stream observer to handle requests and responses. It covers building responses, handling errors, and finalizing the server setup. The tutorial concludes by preparing for the client implementation in the next lecture.

What is a key feature of the bidirectional streaming API discussed in the introduction?

• It requires a fixed number of responses.

• It only supports unidirectional communication.

• It mandates a response for every message received.

• It allows the server to respond to any number of messages.

What is the first step in implementing the server for the bidirectional streaming API?

• Configuring the network settings.

• Setting up a database connection.

• Implementing the greet everyone API.

• Creating a client-side observer.

In the server implementation, what is the role of the stream observer?

• To manage client connections.

• To handle incoming requests and send responses.

• To log server activities.

• To monitor server performance.

How does the server handle multiple requests in the bidirectional streaming API?

• By calling the response observer multiple times.

• By queuing them for sequential processing.

• By ignoring additional requests.

• By sending a single response for all requests.

What happens when the client indicates it has finished sending data?

• The server resets the connection.

• The server continues to wait for more data.

• The server sends a completion signal back to the client.

• The server shuts down immediately.
